About Me

As a freshman in high school, I created my first website, which marked the beginning of my development journey. Since then, I have worked on various personal projects and contributed to cutting-edge Generative AI initiatives for companies like The Parker Avery Group.

I am passionate about software development for AI agents and continuously learning how to containerize and deploy these applications. I'm also interested in advanced analytics and statistics. By combining these areas, I aim to build more effective and insightful AI solutions that can make a meaningful impact.

Outside of academics, I am actively involved in campus life. As a member of the IFC Social Committee, I help create a safe and enjoyable experience for students. As a Founding Father of Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity, I contribute to building a brotherhood focused on leadership, community, and personal growth. My involvement in the Catholic Center has also been a meaningful part of my college experience, offering opportunities for spiritual growth and service.

When I step away from my computer, I enjoy lifting, various sports, music, and spending time with friends and family.
